December 6, 200915 yr She is indeed related to Rollo Armstrong of Faithless. Siblings. Rollo and Sister Bliss (also of Faithless) have both had hands in producing Dido's albums. Thanks for that. Here With Me was another song I liked. The collaboration with Eminem is another favourite here.
December 25, 200915 yr Has no one heard of Beth Orton? Dido was rubbish compared to her. She's hardly the queen of music. What has she done that compares to the work of Kate Bush for example who created amazing adventurous music in the 80s, or Tori Amos or Bjork?
December 25, 200915 yr Have a very DIDO christmas!! :wub: :) :) :) Rather not, I don't like her. But merry Christmas to you too .)

December 28, 200915 yr I think Dido is nice enough, but I find all her songs (except Life For Rent and White Flag) boring... Talented, but doesn't make good songs imo. So you could say she was crap.
December 28, 200915 yr The only recording artist to have two albums in the UK's Top 10 best selling albums of the decade.
December 28, 200915 yr People who say Dido is crap obviously can't here properly :( I can hear quite well. She's ok but selling 3 million copies of her first album and nearly as much with the second? That is certainly not warranted given her average voice and lack of range. It's a comparison thing. There are many better, more interesting, more talented singers out there so she is far from the Queen of music. She's not even in the Top 50. People who think Dido is the Queen of music obviously need to hear more music.

December 28, 200915 yr Is this joker for real? Funnily enough I'm listening to Dido right now. See You When You're 40. Not one of her best, I think it's fair to say.
December 28, 200915 yr You need to get out more, coming up with mindless, untrue arguements!! :( Could you point out where I am wrong?
December 28, 200915 yr Dido is OK. 'White Flag' is one of my faves from her, but 'Stan', 'Here With Me' and 'Hunter' are all pretty good. I tend to agree with the people who say she is MOR and bland though, her voice is rather odd too.

I tend to agree with the people who say she is MOR and bland though, her voice is rather odd too. This is exactly my position. Three decent singles and a Stan connection does not make the Queen of Music. It's a joke. Surely Amy Winehouse, Nelly Furtado, even Beyoncé has done more for music this decade. Never mind all the leftfield people like Bat for Lashes, Bjork, Santogold, MIA.....
December 28, 200915 yr Could you point out where I am wrong? Saying Dido is boring, etc PLUS, it has been stated before that this is an APPRECIATION THREAD, to appreciate Dido, so no Dido bashing please. When your ready to apologise for your hurtful words, I'll be more than happy to except :) :)
